The VIA south bridges are able to relocate and toggle (enable or disable) their
SuperI/O functions. So far this is hardcoded such that all functions are always
enabled and are located at fixed addresses.
Some PC BIOSes seem to probe for I/O occupancy before activating such a function
and issue an error in case of a conflict. Since the functions are enabled on
reset, conflicts are always detected. Prevent that by implementing relocation
and toggling of the SuperI/O functions.
Note that all SuperI/O functions are now deactivated upon reset (except for
VT82C686B's serial ports where Fuloong 2e's rescue-yl seems to expect them to be
enabled by default). Rely on firmware -- or in case of pegasos2 on board code if
no -bios is given -- to configure the functions accordingly.
Pegasos2 emulates firmware when no -bios is given, this was explained in
previos commit so maybe not needed to be explained it here again so you could
drop the comment between -- -- but I don't mind.

I wonder if some code duplication could be saved by adding a shared
via_superio_update() for this further up in the abstract via-superio class
instead of this method and vt8231_superio_update() below. This common method in
abstract class would need to handle the differences which seem to be reg
addresses offset by 0x10 and VT8231 having only 1 serial port. These could
either be handled by adding function parameters or fields to ViaSuperIOState
for this that the subclasses can set and the method check. (Such as reg
base=0xe2 for vt82c686 and 0xf2 for vt8231 and num_serial or similar for how
many ports are there then can have a for loop for those that would only run
once for vt8231).
Only the enable bits and the parallel port base address line up, the
serial port(s) and the floppy would need special treatment. Not worth it
IMO.
Missed this part in previous reply. The serial ports would be taken care
of by a loop for number of ports so only the floppy needs an if which
could also use the number of serial ports for lack of better way to
distinguish these cips easily. Number of ports are in the superio class
which you could get with ISA_SUPERIO_GET_CLASS (see via_superio_realize)
then serial.count would be 2 for 686b and 1 for 8231.
But now I think another way may be better that is to drop the
superio_update function as this updates all functions on writing any
register unnecessarily and put the lines from it in the
vt*_superio_cfg_write() functions under the separate cases. This was the
original intent, that's why the reset function goes through that write
function so it can enable/disable functions. That way you could apply mask
on write so via_superio_cfg_read() would return 0 bits as 0 (although the
data sheet is not clear about what real chip does, just says these must be
0 not that it's enforced but if we enforce that it's probably better to
return the effective value on read as well). Then when state saving is
added in separate patch you can have a similar function as
vt82c686b_superio_reset() (or rename that to update and make it use
regs[xx] instead of constant values and call that from reset after setting
regs values like you did here. But that needs more thought as the vmstate
added by this patch is incomplete and would not work so you could just
drop it for now and add it later with also adding other necessary state as
well. The idea was to implement the chip first then add state saving so we
don't need to bother with breaking it until we have a good enough
implementation. So far the state saving there is just left over from the
old model which never worked and only left there for reminder but only
wanted to fix once the model is complete enough.
So I think for now you could drop vmstate stuff and distribute the
superio_update lines in the superio_cfg_write functions so each reg only
controls the function it should control. Then when vmstate saving is added
later it could reuse superio_reset as an update function adding a new
reset func setting reg values and calling the old reset/new update
function. Does that make sense?
